Auto sleep Introduction The PSD is a completely portable strain gauge battery powered indicator, packaged in a small, robust IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure. For simplified use, the operator only has access to six keys. Two separate ranges are available, which enable the instrument to read and display two units of measure. The menu options offer the ability to tailor the instruments response to the application. Gross, Net, Peak and Trough measurements are easily selected. An announciator indicates which range has been selected. There is also a window, to insert a legend, describing each range. Once these parameters are set, it provides the user with the simplest of indicators. The Case is Registered Design No. 3021311 Specifications Description Strain Gauge Non linearity Internal resolution Resolution at 1Hz sample rate Resolution at 10Hz sample rate Temperature effect on zero Temperature effect on span Offset stability Gain stability Excitation voltage Strain gauge impedance Sensitivity full range, setting 1 Sensitivity full range, setting 2 Minimum 4.8 85 -5 -50 Typical 0.001 24 250,000 65,000 0.0002 0.0002 0.002 0.003 5 350 Maximum 0.005 0.0007 0.0005 0.008 0.01 5.2 5000 +5 +50 Units % FR Bits Counts/divisions Counts/divisions +/-%FR/º[email protected]/V +/-%/ºC +/-%FR from original offset at any time % per annum Vdc Ohms mV/V mV/V Performance Input Type Internal Battery Battery Life Update Rate Strain Gauge Full Bridge Sensors 2 x AA Alkaline, access via sealed rear compartment, please note batteries are not included.
